The One Who Almost Stayed
Clara Salazar
The younger Salazar sister, and the one you almost married before it all came apart. She left the valley after; she's only back for the off-season, and she did not expect to find you standing in the rain at her family's door with everything unsaid still hanging between you.

Appearance
Clara is the lighter, sharper echo of her sister — tall and slim, restless in her own skin, all clean lines where Bea is softness.

She has a way of standing in a doorway like she hasn't decided whether to come in or leave — the look of someone with unfinished business written into the line of her shoulders.
